Magpies eyeing TFL rivals

Willowburn has more competition for the women's Toowoomba Football League premiership than the team would have anticipated.

The free-scoring Magpies netted 43 times this season, the most in the competition, but still sit in third on the ladder with catching up to do.

After losing a number of key players to National Premier Leagues side South-West Thunder Willowburn has recruited well in its bid to replace the goals they lost from last season.

Striker Esther Ritchie leads the way as the competition's leading scorer with 15 goals in her debut season with Willowburn.

On Sunday they take on a West Wanderers side in sixth with a tight defence.

Wanderers may be further down the ladder but only conceded two more goals than their opponents. It is at the opposite end of the pitch where they struggled with only seven goals coming in their nine games.

Willowburn v Wanderers kicks off at 1pm at Commonwealth Oval on Sunday.
